## Common Variables

### CONSOLE_API_URL

The backend URL for the console API. This is used to construct the authorization callback. If left empty, it defaults to the same domain as the application. Example: `https://api.console.dify.ai`

### CONSOLE_WEB_URL

The front-end URL of the console web interface. This is used to construct front-end addresses and for CORS configuration. If left empty, it defaults to the same domain as the application. Example: `https://console.dify.ai`

### SERVICE_API_URL

The Service API URL, used to display Service API Base URL in the front-end. If left empty, it defaults to the same domain as the application. Example: `https://api.dify.ai`

### APP_API_URL

The WebApp API backend URL, used to specify the backend URL for the front-end API. If left empty, it defaults to the same domain as the application. Example: `https://app.dify.ai`

### APP_WEB_URL

The WebApp URL, used to display File preview or download Url to the front-end or as Multi-model inputs; If left empty, it defaults to the same domain as the application. Example: `https://udify.app/`

### FILES_URL

The prefix for file preview or download URLs, used to display these URLs in the front-end and provide them as input for multi-modal models. To prevent forgery, image preview URLs are signed and expire after 5 minutes.

***

## Server

### MODE

Startup mode: This is only available when launched using docker. It is not applicable when running from source code.

- api: Start API Server.
- worker: Start asynchronous queue worker.

### DEBUG

Debug mode: Disabled by default. It's recommended to enable this setting during local development to prevent issues caused by monkey patching.

### FLASK_DEBUG

Flask debug mode: When enabled, it outputs trace information in the API responses, facilitating easier debugging.

### SECRET_KEY

A secret key used for securely signing session cookies and encrypting sensitive information in the database.

This variable must be set before the first launch.

Run `openssl rand -base64 42` to generate a strong key for it.

### DEPLOY_ENV

Deployment environment:

- PRODUCTION (default): Production environment.
- TESTING: Testing environment. There will be a distinct color label on the front-end page, indicating that this environment is a testing environment.

### LOG_LEVEL

The log output level. Default is INFO. For production environments, it's recommended to set this to ERROR.

### MIGRATION_ENABLED

When set to true, database migrations are automatically executed on container startup. This is only available when launched using docker and does not apply when running from source code.

For source code launches, you need to manually run `flask db upgrade` in the api directory.

### CHECK_UPDATE_URL

Controls the version checking policy. If set to false, the system will not call `https://updates.dify.ai` to check for updates.

Currently, the version check interface based on CloudFlare Worker is not directly accessible in China. Setting this variable to an empty value will disable this API call.

### TEXT_GENERATION_TIMEOUT_MS

Default value: 60000 (milliseconds). Specifies the timeout for text generation and workflow processes. This setting prevents system-wide service disruptions caused by individual processes exceeding their allocated time.

### OPENAI_API_BASE

Used to change the OpenAI base address, default is [https://api.openai.com/v1](https://api.openai.com/v1).

## Web Frontend

### SENTRY_DSN

Sentry DSN address, default is empty, when empty, all monitoring information is not reported to Sentry.

## Deprecated

### CONSOLE_URL

> ⚠️ Modified in 0.3.8, will be deprecated in 0.4.9, replaced by: `CONSOLE_API_URL` and `CONSOLE_WEB_URL`.

Console URL, used to concatenate the authorization callback, console front-end address, and CORS configuration use. If empty, it is the same domain. Example: `https://console.dify.ai`.

### API_URL

> ⚠️ Modified in 0.3.8, will be deprecated in 0.4.9, replaced by `SERVICE_API_URL`.

API URL, used to display Service API Base URL to the front-end. If empty, it is the same domain. Example: `https://api.dify.ai`

### APP_URL

> ⚠️ Modified in 0.3.8, will be deprecated in 0.4.9, replaced by `APP_API_URL` and `APP_WEB_URL`.

WebApp Url, used to display WebAPP API Base Url to the front-end. If empty, it is the same domain. Example: `https://udify.app/`

### Session Configuration

> ⚠️ This configuration is no longer valid since v0.3.24.

Only used by the API service for interface identity verification.

- SESSION_TYPE: Session component type

  - redis (default): If you choose this, you need to set the environment variables starting with SESSION_REDIS\_ below.
  - sqlalchemy: If you choose this, the current database connection will be used and the sessions table will be used to read and write session records.

- SESSION_REDIS_HOST: Redis host
- SESSION_REDIS_PORT: Redis port, default is 6379
- SESSION_REDIS_DB: Redis Database, default is 0. Please use a different Database from Redis and Celery Broker.

- COOKIE_SAMESITE: Cookie SameSite configuration, default is Lax.
- COOKIE_SECURE: Cookie Secure configuration, default is false.

## Chunk Length Configuration

### INDEXING_MAX_SEGMENTATION_TOKENS_LENGTH

Configuration for document chunk length. It is used to control the size of text segments when processing long documents. Default: 500. Maximum: 4000.

**Larger Chunks**
- Retain more context within each chunk, ideal for tasks requiring a broader understanding of the text.
- Reduce the total number of chunks, lowering processing time and storage overhead.

**Smaller Chunks**
- Provide finer granularity, improving accuracy for tasks like extraction or summarization.
- Reduce the risk of exceeding model token limits, making it safer for models with stricter constraints.

**Configuration Recommendations**
- Choose larger chunks for context-heavy tasks like sentiment analysis or document summarization.
- Choose smaller chunks for fine-grained tasks such as keyword extraction or paragraph-level processing.
